I had the opportunity to sit down with Sarah Bagley a few weeks ago to record a podcast and talk about all things blogging. Sarah’s personality is so warm and inviting, and despite my own nerves, it felt like I was sitting down for a long lunch with an old friend. We cover a lot of […]

On Air with Chris and Julia
Have you listened to the Chris Loves Julia podcast yet? When Julia told me they were about to launch a podcast, my immediate thought was yes! Give me all the podcasts! As my go-to girlfriend for all things home (and my texting confidante when torn with design indecision), I told her we’d be the first to subscribe. So […]
With Purpose Podcast
I’ve been on a huge podcast kick lately, listening to them for hours upon hours during my painting sessions. The time flies with every portrait, and rather than just listening to the radio (or my guilty pleasure Spotify mixes), I’ve been soaking in tips and lessons from other creatives – laughing, learning and always looking […]
Do It Yourself: Winter 2013
First, can you even get over how well our little chubs is working her angles? Second, our feature in the Better Homes & Gardens Do It Yourself Magazine is out on newsstands right now! A handful of sweet readers starting Instagram-ing the issue once it hit their mailboxes, nearly causing our hearts to implode with […]
Better Homes and Garden was Here
Somehow, someway, through some lucky stroke of chance, our home was taken over yesterday by a crew sent from Better Homes and Gardens Do It Yourself magazine! When we were first contacted several weeks ago by (the wonderful, adorable, and super sweet) Brenda from Meredith Corp., we were asked if we’d be interested in a […]
The Studio on MBG
For the most girly, pink and gold-gilded room in our home, it makes me smile to see the Studio on Made By Girl today! With those brass-‘denza-knobs inspired by Jen herself (originally seen here, then purchased immediately, you know, for art’s sake), it makes my insides all mushy gushy. That, and reminiscing on all those months […]
Halfstack Magazine
We’re excited to announce that we’ve been featured in the first issue of Chicago’s newest culture magazine, Halfstack! The new e-zine is dedicated to the local Chicago designers, artists and professionals in the best city in the world (more on their mission here), and we’re flattered that they’ve asked us to be a part of […]
The RedEye: Little Wonder
This morning, our little Yellow Brick Home was featured in RedEye, a daily newspaper here in the Windy Ctiy. If you’re a Chicago commuter, you’ve seen ’em floating on every “el” train in town, so we hope you can snag a copy to frame for your home office, too. Er, I mean… we’re just happy, […]
Mindful Metropolis: Small Ambitions
When Mindful Metropolis, a Chicago based glossy focusing on conscious living concepts, contacted us a few weeks ago, we eagerly invited the super friendly Christine (founder of Green Parent Chicago) over for coffee and an in-person house tour. That night, we celebrated the unexpected house call and crossed our fingers that they would find us […]
